[Outro: Olivia O'Brien & Blackbear]
Float
Root beer float
I just hit that root beer
You know I had to do it
I just hit that root beer
No Macklemore, no Ryan Lewis
Hit that root beerI just hit that root beer
Maybe later, you can come over
And we can make a root beer float
(That's inappropriate!)

What have the artists said about the song?

Q: “If “Root Beer Float” were on a movie soundtrack, set to a specific scene maybe, what would it be and why?”

A: “Some kind of teen movie where the kids are just going to their first big party or they sneak out one night and do something crazy. The song is about your first time partying, your first time getting drunk with your friends or whatever. It’s just about having fun, experiencing new things, taking advantage of being young. When I listen to the song, sometimes I’ll almost imagine a montage scene where it’s [kids] in a limo, at a club, I don’t know. It’s just how I imagine it.” (

We've all experienced bullying whether it be IRL or on the socials - and we all know it sucks. Sometimes the only thing that can make yourself feel better is imagining being able to someday get your revenge on your tormentors by becoming an awesome clone of Beyonce.
